The East End of Mount Rundle (E.E.O.R.) above Canmore has a great selection of rock climbs for all abilities with quick and easy access from town. One of
the best climbs on the cliff is "Eeyore's Tail", a great 5.8 rock climb with sections of really interesting climbing on great rock. The climb follows
a series of corners, cracks, and chimneys to the top of the wall.
Other good rock climbs on EEOR include True Grit (170m, 5.10b), Reprobate (450m, 5.7), Parallel Dreams (180m, 5.11a), and dozens
more! The short approach, excellent rock, and sweet views combine to make this one of the best multipitch climbing areas in the Rockies.
Location: Canmore, Alberta. 1 hour from Calgary, 20 minutes from Banff.
Length: 350m
Grade: 5.8
Logistics: Canmore, Banff, or Lake Louise are the best places to base out of for rock climbing in the Bow Valley.
